If we connected over complex trauma, cptsd, narcissistic abuse, childhood abuse, and similar issues, please DM me for my new spot.
I've finally progressed enough in recovery and finally just shook free of a crab-bucketer holding me back, so I'm ready to rejoin society as me!!!
I want to do it via DM because progress sometimes means letting go of things, and this account is one of them.
I've said some spicy sh1t that I don't want attributes to the nonprofit I founded and is, like me, finally going public.
Going to be an intense week that, by the end, will mean wild success or the beginning of the end for me.
Complex PTSD sucks so fucking much.

Data from @AAPNews showed 1200 children were admitted to the hospital with Covid during the week ending Sept 9, marking a 5x increase over the past three months.👇🏽

Mary Fields aka Stagecoach Mary was hired as a mail carrier because she was the fastest applicant to hitch a team of six horses.
She was the first black woman employed as a mail carrier in the US and the second woman to work for the US Postal Service.
—Mary Fields was born enslaved around 1832 and freed following the American Civil War. In 1895, Fields was hired as a mail carrier because she was the fastest applicant to hitch a team of six horses. Fields was the first African American woman, and only the second woman, to work in the United States Postal Service. She got her nickname stagecoach because she never missed a day of work, even showing up during heavy snow by wearing snowshoes and carrying the mail packs on her back.
Fields stood six feet tall, and was a woman who commanded attention. Legend has it she wore a 38 Smith & Weston strapped under her apron and could hit anything within 50 paces.
After quitting the mail route in 1901, Fields opened her own laundry and restaurant with the help of Mother Amadeus, the mother superior of an Ursuline convent in Toledo, Ohio.

After what my narcissistic ex has and continues to put me through - and the happiness I've found creating a life where I can focus on just me, my girls, and my nonprofits - very unlikely to have another commited relationship for a very, very long time

I hate what cPTSD stole from me. It stole my ability to be present for others, even people I loved. It taught me to abandon and neglect myself in every possible way. It installed an inner critic that frequently reminds me to hate myself. Today I am angry at cPTSD and that is OK.

When asked about some school districts with COVID outbreaks reinstating mask requirements, CDC Dir Mandy Cohen says, “Masks are one of the tools that people can use to protect themselves.” The admin will never recommend masks again. They’ve concluded that it’s politically toxic.

Update: A judge sentenced Burgess to two years in prison today.
Today, a Nebraska judge will sentence Jessica Burgess for helping her teenage daughter get an abortion after 20 weeks. As states across the country adopt harsher abortion laws, experts warn cases like Jessica Burgess’s will only become more common. theappeal.org/nebraska-abort…

REPEAT AFTER ME: public health interventions that reduce infections are worth doing even if they don’t prevent *all* infections. Fewer infections is always better!!!
Flanders, Belgium: 'Children with chickenpox can go to school from now on'.
Reason: pre-symptomatic transmission exists, so symptomatic transmission should be allowed too.

I love a good plan! Vice President Harris and I have worked hard over the years to protect consumers and lower costs for working people.
This @CFPB action will bring peace of mind to millions of Americans burdened by medical debt.

“Clinical trials likely should have been done sooner.”
On today's @MehdiHasanShow, I pressed Dr. Anthony Fauci on the slowness of our government to address what he calls the “serious problem” of Long COVID - and on Biden never mentioning it.
